Q. I had fixed braces when I was younger for about four years. They were not nice and this is not something I would like to go back to. I lost my retainer a year after and just let things slip. Now a couple of my front teeth are angling away a bit, not too badly mind but enough that I notice. Also when I had my braces taken off those years ago one of my teeth to the side had to be removed because of decay. I now have a crown where that is. Would Invisalign b e able to re-straighten those teeth that have moved away, na dhwta about the crown would it cause any problems?,
A. Invisalign is a great form of treatment for patients who had orthodontics and their teeth have relapsed. It is difficult to say whether it would be an ideal option for you as well without a full clinical and radiographical examination. I would recommend booking in with a dentist who offers all types of teeth straightening so that you can explore all of your options. The crown should not be a problem for receiving orthodontic treatment but I can\’t say without having seen your teeth
